Final Project Part 1- Kayla W.

  • The movie name is The Greatest Showman. I think this was a successful and fun design as it includes all the main characters and has so many colors and it just pops. The film was about a man named Phineas who grew from poverty and fell in love with a girl named Charity at a young age who grew from riches, and he wanted to give her the same life her parents were able to give her. They got married and had two daughters, however his life was still hard because his job got closed down, and he was making very little money. He came up with the idea to create a show with people who are “different” in the way that they dont look how “normal” society sees everyone. This turned into creating it into a circus after a review from a critic called his show a circus. The building got burned down by people who rejected the idea of praising people who looked different, and then Phineas came up with the idea to put the show into a big tent by the end of the movie and it became very successful and his life was filled with riches from his success.

The audience for this movie is aimed toward anyone who enjoys fun, and circus, and musicals. Any age could enjoy this movie. It also gives a good message to never give up on your dreams, even when things are looking down, believe in what you can do, and put it to reality.

Sketchbook Week 11

Now that the weather is warmer it’s time to go outside and get some spring inspiration.

Fill two pages in your sketchbook with landscape outdoor drawings. Go to a park, someone’s backyard, a skate park, garden, etc. You can try drawing one page showing a wide shot from faraway and then a second sketch zoomed in on one area.

Or fill two pages with full landscapes. The theme is outdoors and spring. So make sure you focus on that. Feel free to include people and animals. Try adding color.
